This article looks at the benefit of art therapy for men in a society that feminizes emotional expression. There is a societal expectation for people to live according to societal gender role stereotypes. According to the study, men are less likely to acknowledge their experiences of mental distress or emotions. The article suggests that due to emotions being viewed as feminine, men are less likely to express their emotions and/or distress in different ways. This article shares that art therapy can be a way to help men/boys express their emotions in a alternatives way such as using drawing, comics, clay or any 3D art making. https://lnkd.in/g3Q2xWsz

A Fresh Perspective on Art Analysis for the New Year | New post in blog https://lnkd.in/e8kwX9dx Art analysis through the lens of sensory perception — including tactile elements, spatial integration, and sound — opens a gateway to a richer understanding of art. Analysing tactile elements, including material choice, in particular, offers insights into broader historical and cultural contexts that can shed light on artist intent, while consideration of spatial integration — how an artwork fits into and interacts with the space around it — also adds another layer. Finally, the intentional use of sound serves to enhance emotional resonance. Together, sensory perception provides a holistic lens through which art can be more comprehensively analysed and appreciated.

The presence of telephones in contemporary art has become increasingly intriguing, capturing the attention of artists and critics alike. From paintings to installations, sculptures to performance art, telephones have been incorporated into different artistic expressions, adding a unique layer of depth and meaning to the pieces. In today's digital age, telephones have taken on a new significance. They symbolize connectivity, communication, and the exchange of ideas. Artists harness this symbolism to explore themes such as isolation, technology's impact on society, and the human desire for connection. Through their work, they invite viewers to reflect on the role of telephones in our lives and the implications they have for human interactions. https://lnkd.in/dvWEZzPp #phone #art #telephoneincontemporaryart

Plastic Surgeon @ Hospital Siluetti | General Surgery , Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery , Aesthetic Surgery Expert
I visited Mänttä, at the Gösta Serlachius Museum. The exhibition "Masks: Changing Identities from Antiquity to Contemporary Art" sparked many thoughts. In my work as a plastic surgeon, when I alter the appearance of faces for various reasons, I often ponder what we are truly trying to achieve with surgery. Now that the removal of masks has also become a political concept, the Mänttä Art Museum has analyzed this concept through the works of artists. A mask does not merely cover the face; it encompasses the entire image we project. A silhouette, a selfie, and a moving, living image are masks that we use to show what we truly are or to conceal and protect our true identity. When the leader of our neighboring country appears on television, we see his form and movements, which are carefully constructed to give us a specific impression of him. However, this construct collapses when we look at images of people who have destroyed their appearance, for instance, with lip fillers, to the point where the removal of the mask is no longer possible. What drives them to this? It is hard to believe that it is simply a different, individual perception of beauty. Medicine likely does not have an answer to this. It is good that artists are also contemplating this issue.

There is a popular belief that true artists must suffer for their art to be exceptional. This notion has been a topic of discussion among art enthusiasts for years, and Vincent van Gogh's life is often cited as an example. Despite his tumultuous life, Van Gogh's art is undeniably incredible. However, some argue that the narrative of his greatness solely being a product of his struggles with depression is overblown. While it is true that great art can come from a place of raw emotion, it is not necessary for artists to suffer in order to create exceptional work. In fact, putting too much emphasis on suffering as a prerequisite for great art can be harmful, as it can perpetuate the idea that artists must endure pain to be successful. This can lead to a romanticization of mental illness or other forms of suffering, which is not helpful for anyone. In my opinion, what truly makes art exceptional is the artist's ability to capture the essence of their emotions and convey them in a way that resonates with others. Whether this is done through joy or sadness, pain or pleasure, is irrelevant. What matters is the authenticity of the artist's expression and the impact it has on the audience.

Renata Janiszewska is a Techpressionist artist whose art explores themes such as chance, alchemy, shamanism, intoxication, bio-degradation, and feminism. Techpressionism refers to the expressionist art in the age of digital technology – the artist articulates feeling states such as euphoria, melancholy, and anxiety through a blend of digital and analog elements. We asked Renata about her art, creative process, and inspirations. https://lnkd.in/eRsuUgTq

“Our results suggest that our bodies have a significant role in the aesthetic experience. Bodily sensations can draw people to art: art evokes feelings in the body, and such stimulation of the body’s pleasure centres feels pleasant to the viewer." I think this article definitely outlines in semantic language what we feel viscerally when we view art that engages us. Suffice it to say sales are important, but the true goal for (myself especially) most artists is IMPACT. Sales and impact are not automatically inclusive. #artcollectors #homedecor #officestyling #productivity https://lnkd.in/eNubWwYn
